Luna watched the figure gradually walking away, and a bold idea suddenly popped into her little head, 'If I also go study at the academy... wouldn't I be able to see Big Sis every day?'
———
Early morning, Little Light slowly woke up from her sleep.
The sound of pages turning came from beside her.
She groggily sat up, her little pink hair messy, eyes not fully open yet, and looked toward the source of the sound.
She saw her second sister sitting at the desk, holding paper and pen, writing and drawing there, and the desk was piled with a bunch of other books.
Not only that, Little Light also noticed the headband tied on Second Sis's head, with a big character written on it, [DILIGENCE!]
Plus an extra-large exclamation mark.
"Oh no, I must not be awake yet if I'm seeing Second Sis studying hard. Better sleep again," As she finished speaking, Little Light flopped back down and closed her eyes.
Before long, she sat up again.
She discovered that Luna was still diligently studying there.
The little pink-hair instantly woke up, 'When a slacker stops slacking, it definitely means there will be... fun to watch!'
Little Light threw off the covers, jumped off the bed like a tiger, wearing cute pink pajamas, wagging her little tail as she leaned close to her second sister.
She peeked at the book Luna was reading, it was basic magical theory.
But more "textbook-style."
Normally, magic books will directly teach you how to use magic;
But what Luna was reading leaned more towards written content, or rather, "exam" related.
Generally, you only read this kind of magic theory when preparing for some kind of magical test.
Little Light scratched her head and asked, "Second Sis, why are you suddenly working so hard?"
Luna didn't take her eyes off the review book, and said, "The new semester enrollment for Saint Heath Academy starts in a month. I want to sign up."
"Eh? But the academy's hatchling division curriculum is designed for hatchlings over seven years old, so most of the applicants are around that age."
Little Light paused, then seriously added, "Big Sis doesn't count. She's a monster."
"If Big Sis can pass the test and stick through it, so can I!", Luna pouted, her pen never stopping. As she talked, she solved another long essay question, and immediately began tackling the next one.
More than a year ago, when Leon gave her her first magic lessons, she had touched on some of these magic theories.
So now, learning it wasn't too difficult.
Seeing her second sister working hard like she was on a sugar high, Little Light widened her eyes a little.
A chill, go-with-the-flow Luna would never suddenly decide to enter Saint Heath Academy for no reason.
There had to be some motivation behind it.
As for what that motivation was, it wasn't hard to guess, it must be related to that girl named Helena.
Saint Heath Academy is located in the heartland of the dragon tribe, quite far from most other tribal territories.
So for students studying there, whether in the hatchling or young dragon division, it's a boarding system. They can only go home on weekends or during winter and summer breaks.
In other words, during regular school days, Noah would spend way more time at school with Helena than at home with Luna.
That's why Luna was so eager to take the entrance exam for Saint Heath Academy.
Only by entering the academy could she go back to being Noah's little tail.
"But if you're only self-studying, it's probably hard to pass the academy's entrance test, right?"
Little Light said, "Big Sis told me before that she got Daddy to tutor her."
Luna paused her answering, set down the pen, and turned to look at Little Light, "But what if Daddy doesn't have time?"
Little Light blinked, then grinned, "How could a daughter-con not have time to tutor his daughter? Even if he's stopping the end of the world, if you go ask him, the end of the world would have to pause for you."
Luna was amused by Little Light's words.
She packed up her books, then jumped off the chair, "Then I'm going to find Daddy right now."
Luna hugged a few test review books and ran toward the door.
Seeing her second sister suddenly transform from a chill mascot to a go-getter, Little Light's mind raced.
After a short brainstorm, she grabbed a few books from the desk into her arms and ran after her, "Second Sis, wait for me!"
———
At the same time, in the temple's backyard training field.
Leon continued accompanying Rossweise in her attempts to condense the Primordial force.
The husband and wife sat on the ground, facing each other.
Rossweise stretched out her hands, palms facing each other, and soon, a clear and sparkling white light dot flickered between her palms.
"Compared to a few days ago... the progress is already significant."
Leon said, looking up at Rossweise, "Is it strenuous?"
Rossweise shook her head, "Much easier now. I feel like I'm gradually getting the hang of it."
"Mm, then let's rest a bit. You've been practicing all morning."
"Alright."
Since Rossweise is busy with work during the day, the couple could only squeeze in time to practice Primordial force in the mornings and evenings.
After resting a while, they'd go have breakfast, then see the queen off to court.
"Let me see your hands," Leon said.
"What for?"
"To see if you're hurt."
"Oh."
Rossweise obediently stretched out her hands.
Leon held her hands in his, the backs of her hands slightly cool, her skin delicate and smooth.
"Your Majesty, your hands are so small. Let's compare."
Rossweise looked at the dog man pretending to be nonchalant, curling her lips, 'You think Her Majesty can't see through your little scheme?'
'Hah, childish.'
"Sure, let's compare then."
Rossweise raised her palm and pressed it against Leon's.
And the next second, just as she expected, Leon slid his fingers between hers.
Fingers tightly interlocked, couldn't be separated.
"Your Majesty, your hands are so cold, let me warm them up for you," The dragonslayer hero spoke righteously.
The queen raised her elegant eyebrows and smiled playfully, "Then I really must thank you."
"You're welcome, Your Majesty. As your captive, it's my duty."
"Oh really? Then my other hand is also cold. Will you warm it too?"
"Absolutely, Your Majesty!"
Rossweise smiled, slowly stretched out her other hand.
Just as Leon leaned in to hold it, in the next second, Rossweise suddenly reached out, grabbed his collar, and yanked him to her face.
Leon tilted his head slightly upward, his nose brushing against her beautiful chin, the silver-haired beauty's breath lightly blowing on his cheek, warm and fragrant.
"If you wanted to hold my hand, just say so, hubby."
"If I said it directly, would you obediently let me?"
"Nope."
"Pfft, doesn't matter whether you would or not. I'm already holding it now, you can't shake me off."
As if. Just holding hands could trap the majestic Silver Dragon Queen?
If she really wanted to shake him off, she wouldn't bother playing this flirty little game with the dog man.
Rossweise was willing to spend time playing "married couple" games with Leon.
There were less than ten minutes left before breakfast. The couple looked into each other's eyes, one high, one low, hands tightly clasped, feeling each other's warmth.
Black and silver eyes met deeply, filled with longing and desire.
The next second, they leaned toward each other's lips at the same time.
So, before breakfast, why not get a taste of each other first—
"Daddy! Mommy!"
"Uh—cough cough! Cough... hmm..."
The hands that were just glued together instantly separated.
The couple instantly pulled away, turned their faces aside, pretending nothing happened.
"Ah... Lu—Luna, Little Light, good morning."
Leon rubbed his palms and stood up, "Why are you up so early today?"
"Second Sis has something to ask you."
Little Light was about to keep speaking, but noticed Mommy's face was a little red, and Daddy's expression a bit strange, so she changed the topic, "Daddy, Mommy, what were you doing just now?"
"N-Nothing..."
"Nothing? Then why are you blushing?"
"Ah, we were... uh... morning exercising, yes, morning exercising."
Little Light nodded, dragged out a long "ohhh."
"Right, you said Luna had something to ask me?"
Leon slowly crouched down, held Luna's little hand, and gently asked, "What is it, Luna?"
"Daddy, I want you to tutor me. I'm going to take Saint Heath Academy's entrance test in a month," Luna said seriously.
Upon hearing this, Leon was slightly surprised.
He didn't respond immediately, but turned to look at Rossweise behind him.
Rossweise also looked surprised. She stepped forward and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to go to school, Luna?"
"Because I want to spend more time with Big Sis."
Rossweise raised an eyebrow, "Is that so... You're really clingy with Noah, huh?"
"Can I, Mommy? I'll work really hard to study!"
Seeing his daughter's serious expression, the couple exchanged glances. Then Leon nodded, "Okay, no problem. Then Daddy will tutor you from now on. It'll be tough, you know?"
"It's okay Daddy, I'll definitely stick with it!"
The little dragon girl was full of confidence.
Leon also believed his daughter would keep her word.
"Uh... Daddy," Little Light tugged on Leon's sleeve from the side.
"What is it, Little Light?"
